The mother-of-two, who has been having counselling to help with her plastic surgery addiction, also revealed that she has begun the process of reverting to her pre-surgery look as she explained she was desperately trying to reverse some of the symptoms.

Alicia - real name Sarah Howes - confessed: 'I looked fake and that Barbie image doesn't appeal to me any more; I want to look natural and go back to how I looked when I was Sarah.'

The star, whose extensive plastic surgery list includes seven nose jobs, 16 boob jobs and even having her toes shortened, also revealed her fears that daughter Georgia has picked up on her addictive personality.

Discussing her daughter's super healthy lifestyle, Alicia explained: 'I see what she's doing and I wonder if she's taken my addiction down another road.

The reality star, who has been linked to a series of celebrities Calum Best and actor Mickey Rourke, has previously admitted that she underwent so many potentially dangerous and painful operations and procedures – at one point at the rate of one a week – because she was convinced she was ugly.

In an interview with the Mail on Sunday in 2013, Ms Douvall said: ‘I took a Barbie doll to one medical consultation to show them exactly what I was after.

'I was unwell; addicted to surgery. But none of those doctors tried to stop me. I think they just wanted my money.’

Since then she has gone on to warn young girls about the dangers of going under the knife and admitted she's been approached by several reality starlets seeking advice on surgery.
